Odour profile (FraterWork)
Dimethyl Hydroquinone presents a powerful sweet-herbaceous
character with warm nutty-tobacco facets, fresh new-mown hay greenness, and
anisic-fennel aromatics, reading bitter-sweet with remarkable tenacity despite
its modest molecular weight.

Descriptions
Comment (FraterWork)
This material opens with intensely sweet, sharp-green notes reminiscent of
crushed hyacinth stems and fresh fennel. Use it in traces to create the classic
"foin coupé" (mown hay) accord when combined with coumarin. Its remarkable
tenacity despite low molecular weight makes it invaluable for bridging top to
base notes.
The powerful herbaceous character transforms floral compositions, particularly
white florals where naturalness proves elusive. In hyacinth reconstructions,
this material provides the essential sweet-green foundation that defines the
flower's character. Tobacco and oriental bases benefit from its warm, nutty
facets that add sophisticated aromatic dimension without overwhelming sweetness.
Surprisingly this material is naturally found in violet flowers. Traces can be
useful in constructing a complex and true-to-life violet accord.
